introduction
At the beginning of 2024, the TV drama market has shown a vigorous attitude, first of all, the popular "Flowers" received rave reviews, and ended successfully yesterday, and was evaluated as a "unique product" by CCTV.
followed by the period drama "Dajiang Dahe 3", which has a big IP reputation, and it was also launched on CCTV in a prime time, which shows CCTV's confidence in it.
"Dajiang Dahe 3" is the final chapter of the Dajiang Dahe series of IPs, and the first two parts have a rating of 8.8, which is a proud achievement.
Because of this, the audience has great expectations for this final chapter.
In the case of only 1 episode on January 8, the ratings are already close to the finale of "Flowers".
is such a drama with a popular background, but the comment area is full of bad reviews, and the simple summary is that this one does not seem to match the first two, and the actors' acting skills have not improved.
What the hell is going on?
Inexplicably there is no logic
In the first two parts, it is mainly about the ups and downs of a group of young people in the torrent of the times, some are beautiful and some are down.
In the ending of "Big River 2", Song Yunhui, played by Wang Kai, had an accident and divorced and was sent to the countryside.
Lei Dongbao, played by Yang Shuo, also received a commutation of his sentence and plans to make a comeback after being released from prison.
The audience was appetized by this ending and wanted to see how these leading actors would develop in the future.
In "Dajiang Dahe 3", the background was foreshadowed before the opening, and a series of factories such as Pengyang Pesticide Factory were reformed to become a complete industrial chain, and Song Yunhui was also summoned back to the East China Sea.
Because the technical adjustment was very smooth, Song Yunhui organized a celebration party, and just after two laps, the police suddenly broke in, saying that there was a problem with the pesticides in their factory, and they had poisoned people.
Song Yunhui was very surprised when he heard this, so he cooperated with the police and came to the police station.
But as soon as he got out of the car, Song Yunhui didn't have time to understand the situation, and was directly opened by the angry crowd with a wine bottle.
This plot is actually very unreasonable, this is at the entrance of the police station, surrounded by police.
If you want to say that the crowd is angry and hides a fruit knife to vent their anger, it doesn't matter if the police don't find it, so a big wine bottle in their hands, don't the police have this sense of security?
Immediately afterwards, and the crew's costume was also very confused, the wound on Song Yunhui's head was simply treated, and a small piece of gauze was pasted, but the neck was full of blood, and it was not wiped at all.
At this time, all the persons in charge of the factory rushed over, and the deputy director even blew his beard and glared at the police, asking what was going on with the injury, until Song Yunhui himself said that it didn't matter.
Although the plot can't stand scrutiny, the opening effect is still good, the audience was immediately attracted to it, and they also followed the plot and had questions in their hearts: What is the problem with pesticides?
In the face of such a predicament, Song Yunhui was not at a loss, and in the past ten years, he has sat in the position of factory director from a small mountain village, and he has also experienced strong winds and waves, so he has been proving for himself and conducting investigations.
Eventually, the toxic nature of the pesticides became clear, and the previous director of the plant had limited capacity, often shifting responsibility and slowing down the project.
In order to catch up with the schedule, two workers changed the recipe without authorization, which led to the appearance of severe poison.
However, it remains to be seen whether this result will be over, because the expressions of everyone present are meaningful, and perhaps a little bit other.
Judging from this plot, he is still the same Song Yunhui who admits death, even if he is exiled for a while, he has not changed.
After Lei Dongbao was released from prison, he united many factory directors to form the Thunder Group and became a general manager.
It is also worth scrutinizing whether this setting is reasonable, after all, Lei Dongbao has just been released from prison and can enter the leadership.
When eating with a group of old factory directors, he also showed tactfulness, although he listened to the complaints of the factory directors on the surface, but a few words can poke their pain points, making people speechless.
Of course, this kind of resolute person is destined to make many people dissatisfied, so Lei Dongbao's situation is not ideal.
And Dong Zijian's role as Yang Xun is the point that the audience complains about the most.
In the ending of the second part, Yang Xun is a relatively miserable one, his mother died of a serious illness, and his business is not going well.
Therefore, at the beginning of "Dajiang Dahe 3", Yang Xun had a fierce dispute with his younger siblings, and Yang Kui not only wanted to leave this home, but even wanted to drop out of school.
In the midst of the argument, the audience can get some information.
At the beginning, Yang Xun's mother's money for medical treatment was given by Yang Lu. The key is that the mother was unwilling to treat the disease and gave Yang Xun a business, but he owed a lot of debts, which attracted the creditor to come to the door.
It can be said that Yang Xun dragged down the family, and in the face of the aggressiveness of the creditor and the complaint of his sister, Yang Xun came to a crying scene that can be called a negative teaching material.
The director kept giving Dong Zijian a close-up, but he couldn't borrow this scene, he choked for a long time and didn't shed tears, although he kept apologizing and repenting verbally, claiming that he was sorry for his mother, but on this expression, I really couldn't see Yang Xun's apology.
And this scene occupied nearly 20 minutes in an episode that was not too long, which made the audience very speechless.
Not only that, Wang Kai and Yang Shuo's acting skills have also been complained about, Wang Kai doesn't seem to have made any progress, he still has that dry acting skills, and Yang Shuo's label is still that "greasy".
Full screen of bad reviews
Maybe it's because there was "Flowers" before, and it was a drama of the same era, and the audience could easily compare the two, and the audience bluntly said: "Dajiang Dahe 3" was beaten by "Flowers" in all directions, and after watching "Flowers", I can't watch this drama at all.
Some people also commented that after watching the drama, they have the taste of "County Party Committee Compound", perhaps because these two dramas were created by the noon sun.
Over the years, the noon sun has been constantly eating the old book, the "Ode to Joy" series is the same, and the "Big River" series is the same, it seems that as long as it is a big hit, it can continue to make a sequel.
Like the follow-up installments of "Ode to Joy", the problem with "Big River 3" is that it is rigid and straightforward.
Netizens directly think that in addition to the title and character name, this drama seems to have nothing to do with the two previous popular films, and the appearance is really a bit ugly.
If you watch the TV series, I believe you will feel the same way, especially like "County Party Committee Compound".
The background of these two dramas is not the same, and the plot and character settings are also different, but the noon sun confuses it, and some viewers even dance the scene.
Many viewers believe that this drama should end in the second part, although the three lines of Song Yunhui, Lei Dongbao, and Yang Xun are very clear, they are really a bit blunt.
However, due to the word-of-mouth of the first two films, there are still many people who give high marks to "Dajiang Dahe 3".
The audience feels that the background of "Flowers" is in Shanghai, and the pace of life is already fast and full of opportunities, so the pace of "Flowers" is also relatively fast in terms of plot setting.
And "Dajiang Dahe 3" is set in Anhui in the 90s of the last century, there is no opportunism here, and the people don't even know what the stock market is, but the factory they have struggled for all their lives is the foundation of the country's development.
An audience directly commented: "Without Song Yunhui's chemical factory, they can't export a single piece of clothing." ”
However, is the pace of "Big River 3" too slow?
Some viewers commented that although it was originally a person, but an episode is 40 minutes, this kind of really effective information is only about 20 minutes, and the plot drags on, which makes people very tired to watch.
From the first part in 2018 to the end in 2024, the actors of the "Big River" series are still those actors, who have accompanied too many people.
In just 3 episodes, the director also smoothly explained the situation of these characters, simple and clear, it is still the same taste of the past.
Maybe it's really because the tone of the first two parts is too high, so the audience has been looking forward to it for another 3 years, so at the beginning of the TV series, there may be a lot of different voices.
Overall, "Big River 3" still continues the consistent style of the old main theme drama.
The original cast is a good thing, but maybe it's because of the decline in age and the state of decline, or maybe it's because I'm relaxed about myself, Wang Kai's performance in "Dajiang Dahe 3" can only be decent.
Especially when playing against opponents, Wang Kai often falls behind, his eyes are evasive, and he is not good at character building.
And Lei Dongbao played by Yang Shuo also had a big problem, in the first two parts, he was a tough tough guy image.
But after being released from prison in the third part, I don't know if it was deliberately set up like this because of being in prison, the role of Lei Dongbao is extremely "greasy", and he is flamboyant, as if Yang Shuo brought his real state to the play.
Among the starring actors, Dong Zijian's state is the most seriously declining, in the midst of his sister's constant complaints, he sits on the sofa in a daze, occasionally saying a word, and even when his younger brother speaks for him, Dong Zijian has no reaction.
This situation is obviously unreasonable in this scene, and in addition to the crying scene we mentioned above, it can be said to be forcibly sensational.
Although there are only 3 episodes, "Big River 3" has exposed a lot of problems, although the ratings have maintained a good level, but on the whole, the results can only be said to be mixed.
I don't know if those falling word-of-mouth can come back as the plot progresses.
epilogue
At present, "Dajiang Dahe 3" is still in an initial stage, and no one knows the follow-up development, and it is even more unpredictable whether it will become another "bad drama".
Under the changes of the times, the protagonists will also usher in different changes and continue to live their own lives.
As the audience, we naturally don't want "Dajiang Dahe 3" to become the second "County Party Committee Compound" with polarized reviews, or hope that Noon Sunshine can continue the glory of the past and successfully start the second shot in 2024 after "Flowers"!
